Of single beds and double standards AKA the unraveling of the motion picture production code and the sexual revolution that began in earnest in the 60s. Most films about sex in this era are pretty unwatchable today because they are trying to shock you with controversies that are long dead, and plus they take such a mechanical view of sex.
This film is different. It stars Cliff Robertson as an airline pilot, Adam, who has a swinging bachelor pad. But he also has a 22 year old sister Jane Fonda , Eileen, who thinks she is the last virgin in New York. After breaking up with her boyfriend she goes out in search of a stranger with which to lose her virginity. She finds a likely candidate, but then she finds out that in lots of men don't mind being the second guy, but their Victorian values reveal themselves when they discover they are about to be the first.
And Adam's swinging 60s libertine view of sex? That becomes "not with my sister you don't! If you ever want to know what things were like on the dating scene when women still had no real career paths and were expected to quit those jobs anyways and be housewives when they married , just as all of that was about to change, watch this film.
Plus it has some of the finest actors of the era who are mainly known for drama in a very funny comedy. AlsExGal Feb 22, Details Edit. Release date February 5, United States. United States.

The story about the relationship between a manic depressive man, Mr Jo Nelson is a man devoted to his advertising career in San Francisco.
Just when George Banks has recovered from his daughter's wedding, he r During a car accident, Vincent Eastman watches his whole life flash be Richard Gere plays a New York playboy who gets more than he bargains for when he pursues a much younger woman Winona Ryder who turns out to have a unique heart condition. Ryder delivers her usual charm and good humor, but Gere is just phoning it in; and as a result they don't quite connect well enough to sell this unconventional romance. Additionally, the film itself does the story no favors by over saturating itself in symbolism and aesthetic designs that emphasize the themes.
Still, it's not a bad picture and Gere and Ryder are both likable and sympathetic in their respective roles. Despite a few weaknesses, Autumn in New York is an entertaining film that explores some interesting issues. Dann M Super Reviewer. Oct 11, Richard Geer plays an aging lothario who newest target is an extremely young Ryder who catches his eye one Autumn evening in New York City.
The result of their instant attraction is a tempestuous affair which becomes complicated after he finds out that she is terminally ill. The originality of the plot was a bit predictable with this Renaissance woman and a modern day bachelor but the beautiful autumn scenery enveloped me in a bittersweet lovey-dovey atmosphere that sedated me like a cup of tea to make me temporarily forget about this romance mismatch and instead sympathize for the situation alone.
It is an excellent movie for anyone who has ever read and thoroughly enjoyed a Harelequinesque novel. One redeeming feature is the filming of New York. Just Beautiful!! Deb S Super Reviewer.
